[cheers and applause] now, another thing that occurred to us was that giants winning on the road the way they did, the one thing the giants' players really missed was that ability

to share it with all of you, and we thought because they're right in the back here we could give them that feeling that if they had won it right here at at&t park. it's the last inning and sergio romo needs one more strike to win the series and dave at microphone. >> ready. cabrel the hitter. here is the two-two pitch. strike three called and the giants win the world series.
